Ramon Clemente...

[shockerfan]

So I saw on Twitter that Ramon said he was scoring like 30+ points his first couple games with the team in Israel. Coach Jans, JT and PJ even gave him a hard time asking if it was really a 6'4" and under league LOL. I didn't really believe it....but here are his stats through the first 2 games:

Min per game - 37.5
PPG - 34.5
FG% - 64.3%
FT% - 93.8%
RPG - 9.5
Steals - 2.5

Now I'm all for Ramon....but I'm with Coach Jans, JT and PJ...what kind of league is this???!! ;) GO GET 'EM RAMON!! :clap:

Wow 93.8% FT. Who did RC pay to get that stat?

Maccabi Ashdod is in the second tier of the Israeli Basketball Association. Teams that finish in the top two are promoted to the Super League which includes Maccabi Tel Aviv, Gal's team.

That's 15 for 16! I can't do that in my driveway.

Somebody else has to be shooting his FTs. I might be able to buy him shooting as high as 70% with work but 90+ seems impossible

dam quit hating on him, did you ever think he practiced and got better

RamonClemente Lol just went on Shockernet (school wesite) and my own so called college "family" is hating on me that's crazy. Me against the world I see

RamonClemente But I love my haters for the fact that if it wasn't for you I wouldn't push myself and yes haters I am shooting 93% from the line

[SubGod22]

People get better with practice, but you have to admit that that kind of improvement is quite drastic. Especially considering how much time he reportedly worked on it while here. It's an impressive feat but I just have to wonder if the FT line in Israel is only about 6 ft from the goal :D

We may have won a few more games had he shot like that while here.

I have no idea what to make of this topic.

:shock:

C'mon Mon, nobody's hatin'!

You know there's nothin' but love for you in Wichita.

We are Family, and some of us just want to keep it real...

Small sample size, but still impressive. The chance that a 58% shooter (his average at WSU) would make at least 15 of 16 free throws is 0.21%. Even if you suppose he's actually a 75% shooter, the chance is only 6.34%.

Good for Ramon! I'm thrilled to see him be successful, and I know he's a hard working dude.

Best of luck Ramon.... it was a pleasure to watch you play when you were here and don't forget to come back to Shockerland and say hello when you can.

I read Twitter. Ramon still loves me :D

Now I know I'm getting old. Can't read (understand) a damn thing on Twitter. You guys are murdering the English language.
